Know the Holton Wildcats

Not only do the Wildcats have a proud football tradition, but they have put together quite an impressive 2004 season as well. Not only are they undefeated, but they've shellacked almost every opponent they've faces so far.

Through 10 game, Holton has outscored its foes 458-61, including four shutouts. Their only contest that's been decided by fewer than 24 points was a 24-17 victory at Marysville on Oct. 15.

Know the Lansing Lions

Following an 0-2 start, the Lions have played almost flawless football while rattling off eight straight victories. The eight-game streak is Lansing's longest in recent memory, and this is the farthest it's been in the state playoffs in more than 20 years.

The Lions aren't the biggest or fastest team in the area, but the secret to their success has been that they've been willing to outwork their opponents. The offense has found ways to score when its needed to and the defense has been as tough as any in the area game in and game out.
